he 1984-85 Student Association had a very successful year. Major changes were made, problems confronted and solved, and educational programs as well os entertainment were provided. The biggest accomplishment during the year was the change in governmental structure. The Student Association absorbed Halleck Student Union Board in order to provide more quality, services to the students. The Student Association was divided into two sections; the Student Government and the Student Union Board. This enabled the Student Government to concentrate on governmental policies while Student Union Board was in charge of all social activities and programming. The work was divided into smaller divisions and done by more people. This new structure was more up to date, organized and efficient and will be beneficial to the students. The Student Association provided more diverse programming than before. In September a congressional debate was held, between Dr. Allen Maxwell and Ellis Bud Hillis. A lecture was given by Mr. James Schaffer on how to get o job. A panel discussion was held on Alcohol, the Low, and Public Policy. A group of Freshman Mary Bosch watches Tom Flynn, sophomore, gamble his life away or the Business club table. John Frieberger, sophomore, and freshman Tom Steigmeyer readily await to take Flynn ' s money. students attended a convertion about BACCHUS, to learn about responsible drinking. 1984-85 was on entertaining year, os well as an educational one. A wide variety of bonds were brought in for mixers including Kool Boy and the Polaroidz, Big Twist ond the Mellow Fellows, Amusement Pork Stutz, the Late Show ond many more. Several events were co-sponsored with Halleck Student Union Board such os a Pig Boast, Halloween Party comedians, folk singers such os Boy Fogg and on Irish Bond. Movies were brought bock to the auditorium. They were the first run movies and a small admission fee was used to supplement the revenue of the S.A. Some problems were faced os well. There were many difficulties with the S.A. ' s satellite dish which brings us cable television and movie channels. The students did survive for three weeks without T.V. and hopefully that will never happen again. In the fall semester many students were unhappy with certain aspects of life at St. Joe. A forum was held for trustees and administrators to hear the students discuss campus facilities, inconsistency in academics, and the alcohol policy. The S.A. used this opportunity to try to improve communications between the students, the administration, and the trustees. The Student Association accomplished many goals and hopefully the successful programs will be continued in the future. Social Events Social Events 7
